Music gives us all a message of hope, love, strength, and so much more. These messages are even more important and meaningful to the patients at St. Jude Children’s Research Hospital, which is leading the way the world understand, treats and defeats cancer and other life-threatening diseases. On August 4, 2017, St. Jude will present Music Gives to St. Jude Kids Day, an inaugural event that will allow bands, fans and venues all across the United States to show their support and raise funds and awareness for the patients and families of St. Jude.

St. Jude will be hosting their own Music Gives to St. Jude Kids event at the hospital and are honored and excited to have Country pop artist, Kaylin Roberson perform for our patients on August 4 during the event. Kaylin has not just been winning over fans with her unique sound but, also with her message of hope. As a young child Kaylin also spent time in the hospital after overcoming her own tragic ordeal and feels like she can relate with the kids in a small way.

Kaylin says; “as a child who has been in the hospital I know what it feels like to be there, to be scared, to wonder what is next, the fear of scars and especially the importance of someone giving me a little hope for the future. That is what I try to bring to kids in schools and hospitals across the country…a message of hope and a reminder that it will all be OK, just believe in yourself, stay strong and have faith.”

Music Gives to St. Jude Kids Day will feature artist around the United States that will perform and show support of the St. Jude mission. Finding cures.Saving children. Support from artists like Kaylin ensures that no families receive a bill for treatment, travel, housing or food because all a family should worry about is helping their child live. Kaylin will share her special story about overcoming adversity and perform for the patients and families at St. Jude in Memphis at 11:30 a.m. and will preform live for the first time her new song “Fighter in me” that she wrote for the patients and their families. In addition to the performance, the patient party will include activities, games and lunch while celebrating music.
